Hi All
Sad I know, and I really should get a life.
Which way round do you hang your awning curtains? At home it is "posh" side in, In the van it is "posh" side in. Looking at other awnings on site, it is "posh" side out. Does it really matter? What do you think? Yes, I know, I should get a life
 
Stay safe and enjoy.

Rarely bother to put them up! There is very little difference between the two sides on ours, but if we do put them up, we have the 'posh' side in, as we would at home. As we never sleep or do anything that we mind anyone else seeing in the awning, we have rarely felt the need for curtains!

I thought it was just my oh who worried about this. the main thing is can others see the brand of beer being drunk by looking thru the curtains. Being a male can you advise me which side is the good side as I have been mistified by this fundimental question for the last 30 years, and thats only since we started caravaning!

Yep, the curtains for all the awnings we've had have been like that.

Not that I bother to put them up most of the time - it's the final straw that breaks this camel's back after I've struggled with the awning itself - the curtains can go hang themselves, so to speak. If we are staying a long time, more than 4 days or so, then I might get round to it later in the week.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.
